Woods wife felt stupid


The long-suffering former wife of TIGER Woods has finally spoken out about the golf star’s series of extra-marital affairs.

In her first interview since the scandal erupted, Elin Nordegren expressed: “I’ve been through hell.”

Earlier this week, the couple discreetly concluded their marriage during a brief court hearing in Florida.

During the proceedings, Elin, 30, faced attempts from her ex-husband’s legal team to silence her — a move that would cost her millions in the divorce settlement.

She shared: “I have experienced the phases of disbelief and shock, transitioning to anger and eventually grief over the family life I desperately wanted for my children.”

The former model and nanny remarked: “I also feel stronger than ever before. My beliefs, my decisions, and myself give me confidence.”

The couple’s six-year marriage officially ended on Monday, and they will co-parent their three-year-old daughter Sam and 18-month-old son Charlie.

Elin participated in a series of interviews with the magazine, lasting over 19 hours, at her rented home in Windermere, Florida, following the divorce.

Since the affairs made headlines, she has maintained a dignified silence — even as numerous mistresses came forward to discuss their experiences with the world’s wealthiest athlete.

She expressed having no knowledge of the situation and described feeling “blindsided” and “embarrassed” by the shocking revelations.

She disclosed: “I never suspected a thing.

“For the past three years, during all this turmoil, I was home more often due to pregnancies, taking care of the children, and focusing on my studies.”

Elin indicated her desire to clarify the situation.

She continued: “I felt foolish as more information emerged. How could I have not known anything? The term ‘betrayal’ doesn’t sufficiently convey my feelings.

“At first, I believed we had a chance and we put in a lot of effort.”

However, the couple’s attempt at reconciliation ultimately did not succeed, leading her to conclude that it was best to part ways, despite desiring a happy family life for their children.

She stated: “I will now strive to demonstrate to them that being content while alone is preferable to being in a relationship lacking trust.”

Despite the painful betrayal, she still extended her best wishes to Woods.

She concluded: “I know he will go down as the greatest golfer of all time, and rightly so. I feel fortunate to have witnessed a part of his golfing journey.”
